Description

I've just replaced my rollerski wheels and have new poles after breaking a pole at the end of last season so wanted to check everything was working. It wasn't. I'd glued the points on round the wrong way. So I skied down to the end of the dyke, about 4 km but without using the straps. A bit hard on the arms. Feeling is good on the new wheels. Hope to improve technique this season but already feeling (if not looking) better.

Conditions

Pleasantly warm at 18h without being too hot. A very light northerly breeze. Path has been swept so in good condition.
